A 2018 Subaru Crosstrek purchased at an Arkansas dealership represents the nine-millionth Subaru ever sold in the U.S.

Hershey Garner learned of the milestone upon finalizing the deal for his wagon at Adventure Subaru in Fayetteville, AR, on April 30. The dealership's owner and Subaru officials held a surprise celebration for Garner and his wife after the sale concluded.

Subaru awarded Garner multiple momentos and made a charitable donation on his behalf to Feed Communities, an organization that increases the local community's access to healthy foods.

Garner, who previously owned a 2005 Baja, said he had been looking for the perfect replacement vehicle for quite some time.

"I've been waiting for the right Subaru to come along," said Garner, "and found the perfect one on Adventure Subaru's website, the 50th Anniversary Edition Crosstrek. It has all the features I was looking for, and the color and size are the perfect fit."

March marked Subaru of America's 49th consecutive month of selling more than 40,000 vehicles across the U.S. Subaru is also the only manufacturer to earn nine consecutive years of record sales and 10 years of consecutive growth in the U.S.
